PIN code:
The serial number is on the product rating plate and on the product carton.
Use the serial number to register your product on www.husqvarna.com.
1.2 Support
For support about the product, speak to your
Husqvarna servicing dealer.
1.2.1 Complete Operator’s Manual
A complete operator's manual is available on
Husqvarna’s website www.husqvarna.com. It
is more in detail about e.g. instructions about
installation, maintenance, troubleshooting and
menu structure.
1.2.2 Product description
Note: Husqvarna regularly updates the
appearance and function of the products.
Refer to
Support on page 2
.
The product is a robotic lawn mower. The
product has a battery power source and cuts
the grass automatically. Collection of grass is
not necessary.
The operator selects the operation settings
with the buttons on the keypad. The display
shows the selected and possible operation
settings, and the operating mode of the
product.
The boundary wire and the guide wire control
the movement of the product within the work
area.

Connect
Automower
®
Connect is a mobile application
that makes it possible to select the operation
settings remotely. Refer to
Connectivity on
page 20
.
1.3 Capacity
How big an area the product can keep cut
depends primarily on the condition of the
blades and the type, growth and moisture of
the grass. The shape of the yard is also
significant. If the yard mainly consists of open
lawn areas, the product can mow more per
hour than if the yard consists of several small
lawns separated by trees, flower beds and
passages. For working capacity, refer to
Technical data on page 26
.
It is recommended to allow the product to
mainly mow in dry weather to obtain the best
possible result. The product can also mow in
rain, however wet grass easily sticks on the
product and there is a greater risk of slipping
in steep slopes. The blades must be in good
condition to obtain the best mowing result. In
order to keep the blades sharp for as long as
2 - Introduction
1418 - 001 - 04.12.2019
possible it is important to keep the lawn free
from branches, small stones and other
objects. Replace the blades regularly. Refer to
Replace the blades on page 23
.
1.4 Movement pattern
The movement pattern of the product is
random. This means that the lawn is mown
evenly without any mowing lines.
1.5 Working method
Automower
®
315X/430X/450X use GPS-
assisted navigation to start mowing in a place
in the yard where it has not been lately. For
the other models you might have to set remote
start settings to make sure that the lawn is cut
evenly, refer to the complete Operator’s
Manual on Husqvarna’s website.
When the product hits an obstacle or
approaches the boundary wire the product
reverses and selects a new direction. Sensors
at the front and back will sense when the
product is approaching the boundary wire. The
front always passes the boundary wire by a
specific distance before the product turns
around. The distance can be changed to
adapt to the installation if required.
The STOP button on the top of the product is
mainly used to stop the product when it’s
running. When the STOP button is pushed a
hatch opens, behind which there is a control
panel. The STOP button remains pushed in
until the hatch is closed again. This together
with the START button acts as a start inhibitor.
Note: Always push the START button before
closing the hatch to start the product. If the
START button is not pushed, a message beep
is heard and the product will not start.
Note: When the product is started for the first
time, a start-up sequence begins which
includes a number of important basic settings,
refer to
To do the basic settings
in the
complete Operator’s Manual on Husqvarna’s
website.
1.6 Finding the charging station
The Automower
®
305/310/315/315X/
420/430X/440/450X can be set to search for
the charging station in up to 3 different ways.
The product automatically combines these 3
search methods to locate the charging station
as fast as possible, but also to avoid as much
tracks forming as possible. Automower

always follows the guide wire to the charging
station.

3 Installation
3.1 Connecting the power supply
Take the following into consideration when
planning where to place the power supply:
Close to the charging station
Protection from rain
Protection from direct sunlight
WARNING: The product is only to
be used with a power supply unit
supplied by Husqvarna.
When connecting the power supply, only use
a wall socket that is connected to an earth
fault-breaker (RCD).
WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock.
Install only to an earth-fault breaker
(RCD) when connecting the power
supply to the wall socket. For USA/
CANADA: Use a covered Class A
GFCI receptacle (RCD) that has an
enclosure that is weatherproof with
the attachment plug cap inserted or
removed.
WARNING: No parts of the power
supply must be changed or
tampered with. The low voltage
cable must not be shortened or
extended.
Low-voltage cables of different lengths are
available as accessories.
WARNING: The power supply
cable and extension cable must be
outside the work area to avoid
damage to the cables.
WARNING: Do not under any
circumstances mount the power
supply at a height where there is a
risk it can be submerged in water (at
minimum 30 cm / 12" from the
ground). It is not permitted to place
the power supply on the ground.
min 30 cm / 12”
WARNING: Use the plug to
disconnect the charging station, for
instance before cleaning the
charging station or repairing the loop
wire.
WARNING: Place the low voltage
cable and adjust the cutting height
so that the blades on the blade disc
can never come in contact with the
cable.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
damage to electrical components,
disconnect all connections to the
charging station (power supply,
boundary wire and guide wires) if
there is a risk of a thunderstorm.
WARNING: Do not encapsulate
the power supply. Condensed water
can harm the power supply and
increase the risk of electrical shock.

result. Consequently, it is
important to limit the operating
time using the
Schedule
function if
the work area is less than the
product’s work capacity. The
Schedule
function is also an ideal
tool to control which periods the
product should not mow, for
example when children are playing
on the lawn.
Cutting height

®
420/430X/440/450X
The cutting height can be varied
from MIN (1) to MAX (9). During

the loop wire. After this, the cutting
height can be lowered one step
every week until the desired
cutting height has been reached.
